Nursing - List three sites for intramuscular injection and
why you would use one over the other?
- 1. Deltoid—easily accessible, safe (free from major
- innervation)
- 2. Gluteus medius—less discomfort, large muscle, injection is less likely to leak subcutaneously. (**Note: disadvantage: sciatic nerve in area, can lead to paralysis if hit).
- 3. Vastus lateralis—easy to access on small babies (legs are more developed than arms).
